Title: About to make first purchase, should I go with DreamWeaver and have to FE?
Post by: fZh6utohHB925 on January 12, 2013, 01:51 pm
I think I've got everything ready, I've opened an account and I know how to use BitCoins and PGP. I also think I've chosen my first product, 1.2g of "The Ultimate" from DreamWeaver. I've read reviews on his page and the forums that say he's a good seller and product and packaging is really good. He has 100% feedback and I only want to spend about £20 for my first purchase here so it all seems good so far.

The only thing bothering me is that his policy is to FE if you have less than 5 transactions. All the reviews say this is fine and he is trustworthy but there is a stickied thread here saying never finalise until you get the product. I understand he is wary of new buyers scamming him but what should I do?

Should I just trust him and FE leaving me with no insurance in case my package doesn't arrive or should I find a different seller? Any recommendations for this?

Whilst I'm here asking questions anyway, where is the best place to buy BTC in the UK? I was planning on using bitbargain.

Cheers.

I would avoid FE normally, but its only 20 bucks not much to lose.

DW has been reliable for me on my 2 orders, didn't have to fe but have decent stats. He uses good stealth postage methods which has arrived next day on both occasions, weight is normally over and the current Ultimate has been some of the best bud i've sourced on sr.

Do a search he has a review thread in Product offers section.

You are correct with what you mention but the choice is really up to you. As a first time buyer expect to get asked to FE, but don't forget there are vendors out there that do not require it.

I have dealt with DW before having to FE and had no problems, so I recommend him, but that is always your risk

Well 3 replies saying go for it is good enough for me, even better when 2 of them have actually dealt with DW before. If this goes well then I'll probably buy more from him anyway. Thanks for your help putting my mind at ease.

All sounds legit, give Dream Weaver a try.
I have never used DW but remember when he 1st came onto SR and nothing to suggest they are a scammer.
£20 is not too much for you to lose. You need the positive transaction history. It's not worth scamming you over this and risking reputation as a vendor either.

It's nice when you get the letter and open it up to find a bit of something to smoke inside. Like Christmas (well sort of, you know what is inside as you have ordered & paid for it, so not really like xmas but good all the same).

eta:
Come back and tell us what "the ultimate" is like to smoke as I've been tempted to try buying some from DW.
Heard a few good things about that strain. Think it's a commercial strain but that is not necessarily a bad thing if it's a good smoke.

Very impressed with his latest Ultimate, back before xmas it looked nice but did not get me that lean. This new batch immediately smells a lot more fruitier and pungent along with better cured and compacted buds. A spliff of this has my front room smelling like a dam coffee shop, lovely sativa smell and taste, with me nicely baked.

This and Mr Cronk's Super Amnesia Haze from a month or so back have been the best skunk I've smoked on SR.

That's what I thought too, small amount for not too much money is probably safest for my first few transactions for me and sellers. There are other vendors that don't require FE but DW seems trustworthy and still has 100% feedback. I'll leave a review of it on his vendor page here http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=89754.75

Most of the reviews there are pretty good for his old batch (aside from a few trolls) and new batch sounds even better. It is a commercial strain Jopular but there's nothing wrong with that at all, if anything I prefer to have more info from different sources about what I'm inhaling.

Placed my order last night but it's still processing at the moment. No worries for now, no post on Sunday anyway.
